About this kit
3-Inch Lift Kit with Vertex Shocks, fitment-checked
Rough Country 74550 is a 3-inch lift kit for compatible 2005-2023 Toyota Tacoma 4WD trucks, built around adjustable Vertex 2.5 front struts and a matched pair of Vertex 2.5 rear shocks. Minor cutting is required. It does not fit 5-lug wheel trucks, T/X Baja models, or TRD Pro models, both of which carry a 1-inch factory lift.
This 3-inch lift kit for the 2005-2023 Toyota Tacoma 4WD ships with left- and right-hand adjustable Vertex 2.5 front struts, two Vertex 2.5 rear shocks rated for the 2.5-5.5 in range, a strut kit box, and a sway bar drop service kit. Front ride height comes up to level with the rear, and the added room clears tires up to 33 in. Rough Country lists the job as bolt-on with an estimated 2-4 hour install, though minor cutting is involved. Trucks with a two-piece rear driveshaft should also run a carrier-bearing drop bracket.
